Hi, I think you mean this, you can find it on EBay!

Good luck!

Not having much luck with this model.

It will pop up on ebay with the usual idiot price around $400+. Then it doesnt sell. Seller pays ebay fees up the wahoo. Ebay loves the idiocy.

Yup you got it. As much as I want the model I am not paying silly money. The value of our models has dropped. Some rare finds have been going for much less now than a few year ago.

Still looking

Saw one but normal colour on Ebay selling right now. It's pretty rare model my friends also looking for it.

"Idiot Price", had a laugh at that.

I am currently looking at a Qatar 777 model that falls into that category. IMO.

Really should have got this when I had the chance. Bugger.

Can’t blame the sky high prices, we, the buyer are to blame. We push the prices up. A model is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it and some of us are very willing to pay a premium for that elusive model.

Not as good as the Gemini for sure,but herpa makes this one too. But of course it is plastic and the belly color is wrong..

Thanks for letting me know but it’s only the Gemini model I would consider.

not really. you get 50 free listings per month. It doesn't cost anything to list, only if it sells. And even then, ebay has been running $1 promo for last few months.
